This panorama was shot from just up the hill from
where the historical photo was taken. The regrowth of trees has blocked the view from the
exact spot from where the historical shot was taken. But this is a good sign that nature
is recovering.

Just visible to the right of the tall pine tree, and left of the electrical wire is the
old hotel that is so prominent in the historical panorama. In the hundred or so years
since the trees were cut down, the forest has partly regrown. But the forest is still
young compared to what the miners found.

The stream bed is regrown as pasture, habitat for horses and cows. Dams downstream now
block the salmon.
